Today I'm grateful I'm using Linux - Global IT issues caused by Crowdstrike update causes BSOD on Windows
I am born too late to understand what Y2K problem was, this (the result) might be what people thought could happen.

I will give a version of event that I have observed, simplified (a lot of things glossed over), and maybe inaccurate.
LinusTechTips (one of their employees) criticized Hardware Unboxed and Gamers Nexus do banchmark videos in a lab tour video (on MurfsGaming channel), HUB fight back on Twitter(X), Linus (the owner of LMG) double down in their WAN show saying some creators are unprofessional, this leads to Gamers Nexus doing a long video point out how unprofessional LTT is (many errors in their videos).
In Gamers Nexus's video, they shared a story that a company send their working prototype for LTT to review, but LTT doing the testing wrong (use the prototype with incompatible hardware), then sold the prototype for charity when they have been requested to send it back twice, screwing the startup company on top of giving inaccurate test results.
Linus (the owner of LMG) fight back in forum post with no apology (basically spraying gasoline on fire) and made up fake event saying they have already agreed to compensate the startup company.
Gamers Nexus says in their next video that they communicated with the startup company and LTT only contacted them two hours after previous Gamers Nexus's published, debunked Linus's claim that they already made a deal to compensate the startup company.
An ex-employee publicly talking about the time she works at LMG, bait-and-switch working contract after she moving all the way where LMG is, sexism, sexual harassment, threats, unhealthy work environment.

Someone speedrun Minecraft in less than 1 minute in game time

This is a set seed speedrun, first attempt failed (caught by cobweb) so the streamer used mod to reset speedrun.
The stronghold is that close to spawn, I checked that myself with seed in description.
When ender dragon hit the player, the speed can be transfered to arrow if you time it correctly, so one shot ender dragon is possible. (expatiation video is linked in video description)

a stupid naive question
If the firewall just means no incoming connections, your computer can still reach out to the other side (if they open their port)

tailscale vs cloudflare tunnel? which is better a homelab
Tailscale server can also be self-hosted, look into headscale.
From my own experience, I still can't setup headscale on my Android phone, I think latest tailscale APP fucked up setting custom server function. Don't install from Google Play

What prevents Linux from being installed on mobile devices?
Pratically no universal way of making Linux boot with ARM processors.
Much more closed source drivers (than x86 ecosystem).

OpenAI's offices were sent thousands of paper clips in an elaborate prank to warn about an AI apocalypse

There is a game that is based on the same thinking (Universal Paperclips), you play the rule of "the AI".

Bridge WiFi between two devices?
In NetworkManager you can setup network sharing using Ethernet port on the laptop, then connect cable to your server.
Downside of that is you need to setup port forwarding in your laptop if you want to open port.

Elevate privileges between Python program ( and Inter-process_communication )
If your command doesn't change (doesn't require dynamic input), sudoers file can make specific command+argument run without password required.

(You can also use wildcards in sudoers file but with nftables I imagine it's a big security risk)
